Well I got the TV and the front glass wasn't very difficult to remove.

The first thing I noticed was a brown residue on the inside of the all
along the top vents and similar colored dust bunnies inside. I couldn't
find any source for this.. It didn't seem to be coming from any
components. I see no evidence of it on any of the components.

When I removed the glass it was coated in this same brown residue. Even
the apparently clear parts were quite dirty. I spent more time cleaning
the glass than actually taking the glass out.

Anyhow the only thing I can guess is that there is something that was
brining off the actual plasma screen and the smoke residue covered
everything else. I cant understand how else the residue would have
gotten between the glass and the display.

It has a very nice picture now and the speakers sound very good. Bass
and treble My only complaint is the pwr relays seem to be a bit noisy.

Odd, oh well.


After some pondering, I believe it may have been some kind of coating on the
inside.. It had the texure of paint when touched, although it came off with
just water and gentle wiping.. ?? Go figure.. I'm just happy that It was
built how it looked like and the screen wasnt bonded to the glass.
